Sustanon

Sustanon is without question the most popular testosterone mixture on the planet. Where most testosterone compounds are single ester compounds, Sustanon 250
is comprised of four distinct esters; four distinct testosterone
compounds conjoined into one. Developed by Organon for the purpose of
infrequent Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)
treatment, while effective it would soon be held as vital to many
performance enhancing athletes; after all, Organon has for years
manufactured some of the best anabolic steroids on earth.

When it comes to Sustanon's original intent, the idea was to create a
testosterone compound comprised of varying sized esters that would allow
for instant testosterone benefits that would be long lasting. Of
course, this hope would prove to be successful; in-fact, a TRT patient
could actually remedy his low testosterone
condition with only one injection of Sustanon 250 every three to four
weeks. Even so, due to a mixture of small and large esters, a problem
was later discovered; while low testosterone would be remedied, total testosterone levels
would rise and fall beyond appropriate or satisfactory means. For this
reason, if levels are to be maintained at a more stable level, one
injection every teen to fourteen days is probably more efficient, and
for this reason, many U.S. physicians often opt for large single ester
testosterone compounds like Testosterone Cypionate.

While the original intent of Sustanon was for TRT, this can be an
excellent choice for performance enhancing athletes; after all, Sustanon
250 is merely testosterone. Even so, due to the mixture of four varying
esters, if levels are to remain not only stable but also peaked at all
times, despite large esters being a part of the compound every other day
injections are normally recommended. You might be able to get by with
three injections per week, but an every other day schedule will prove
far more efficient. With all of this in mind, we want to look at
Sustanon , what it is precisely, what it has to offer, the side effects
associated, and of course, what you can do about them in-order to
achieve successful supplementation.

Sustanon Traits & Nature:

As stated above, Sustanon is a four part testosterone mixture; specifically it is comprised of Testosterone Propionate, Testosterone Phenylpropionate, Testosterone Isocaproate and Testosterone Decanoate. Through this mixture, the Propionate
and Phenylpropionate esters represent the small esters and will provide
fast acting testosterone benefits while the Decanoate ester, a truly
massive ester will ensure the benefits are long lasting; the Isocaproate
ester fills the role in the middle. Of course, its not enough for these
esters to be conjoined together, in-order for Sustanon 250 to exist
they must be conjoined together in a precise manner; otherwise, it is
not Sustanon 250.

The precise composition of Sustanon is as follows:

30mg/ml Testosterone Propionate

60mg/ml Testosterone Phenylpropionate

60mg/ml Testosterone Isocaproate

100mg/ml Testosterone Decanoate

If you come across a product claiming to be Sustanon, if it is not
comprised exactly as listed above, if it carries varying esters or even
the same esters at different doses it is not Sustanon 250; the above is
what defines and separates this testosterone form. As a testosterone
compound, in many ways everything that can be said of all single ester
testosterone compounds can be said of Sustanon; in the end, it all comes
down to personal preference. At any rate, as a pure testosterone
compound, Sustanon carries an anabolic and androgenic
rating of 100 in both categories, and is a highly versatile steroidal
hormone. Identical to the testosterone you naturally produce, Sustanon
250 carries all the sexually related traits and plays intrinsic roles on
our sexual and physical health and to a degree even our general state
of mind and overall well-being.

A compound that has the ability to greatly enhance protein synthesis,
this is important as protein is the building block of muscle tissue and
synthesis represent the rate by-which cells build proteins. Further,
Sust as its often called will enhance nitrogen retention in the muscle
tissue; all lean muscle tissue is comprised of 16% nitrogen, and the
more we retain the more anabolic we remain; our anabolic atmosphere is
enhanced. While these two factors are primary and important traits, Sust
is not done yet. Often ignored but truly valuable is this hormones
ability to increase the production and release of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1).
IGF-1 is highly anabolic, a peptide hormone produced by all human
beings and it plays important roles revolving around our total recovery;
in-fact, IGF-1 will affect nearly every cell in the human body.

Enhanced protein synthesis, nitrogen retention and IGF-1 are all
important factors, but Sustanon continues to not disappoint. Through
supplementation, red blood cell count is increased, and as red blood
cells carry oxygen to and through the blood this results in greater
blood oxygenation. Then we have glucocorticoid suppression; simply put,
the suppression and reduction of stress hormones. These nasty hormones,
cortisol being the most well-known are in many ways the opposite of
anabolic hormones in that they destroy muscle tissue and promote fat
gain; Sustanon will see such hormones suppressed.

A hormone that aromatizes heavily, like all testosterone compounds Sustanon 250 can lead to adverse estrogen effects. Further, due to its heavy androgenic activity, this is a steroid
that cannot be recommended to women or virilization will occur.
Absolutely, women need testosterone, and they can suffer from low
testosterone, but if therapeutic treatment is needed a single ester
compound is easier to control. As for performance enhancement, the doses
necessary to promote such performance will always lead to some level of
virilization and on this basis other steroids must be chosen; specifically steroids that possess low androgenic activity and low virilization ratings.

Testosterone ReplacementTherapy Benefits of Sustanon:

When it comes to Testosterone Replacement Therapy, the benefits of
Sustanon are fairly straightforward; your testosterone levels are low,
Sust is pure testosterone, and through administration the problem is
solved. Through supplementation, each and every last symptom of low
testosterone can and will be reversed, and as a result, your overall
quality of life enhanced. Those who suffer from low testosterone often
find their libido is severely diminished and often erectile dysfunction
becomes a problem, but these are hardly the only symptoms. A loss of
muscle mass and strength is often common as is increased body-fat, and
this can all occur despite proper exercise and dieting habits. Further,
those who suffer often find their energy levels drained, they become
depressed, suffer from insomnia and their immune system weakens; not to
mention they suffer from a lack of mental clarity and open the door to
many far more serious conditions. When low testosterone is ignored, it
has been shown to be a contributor to leading to diabetes, osteoporosis
and even Alzheimers disease. Thankfully, if you suffer from low levels,
Sustanon 250 can ensure you suffer no more, and the odds of you falling
prey to the more serious conditions will be greatly improved.

Performance Benefits of Sustanon:

In many ways, there is a lot of crossover as it pertains to TRT and
performance based supplementation of Sustanon, but in this case, were
referring to supraphysiological doses. In a TRT plan, we are
supplementing with testosterone in-order to bring our levels back to
normal, but with performance the idea is to increase them beyond what
can normally be achieved in-order for more testosterone to be available
to do what testosterone does best. In any case, when it comes to the
performance benefits of Sustanon 250, they can largely be broken down
into three categories, bulking, cutting and overall enhancement.

Bulking: with supplementation and adequate calories present, you
will be able to gain more lean mass as well as see your strength
increase. Further, due to the metabolic enhancing properties of
testosterone, you will be able to do so with less body-fat accumulation
that normally accompanies mass gaining phases.

Cutting: when it comes to the cutting cycle, many often think of
other steroids before they think of Sustanon or any testosterone
compound, but exogenous testosterone can be essential to a successful
plan. Through use, you will ensure you preserve as much lean tissue as
possible while calories are restricted, and this is invaluable. When we
diet, in-order to lose body-fat our caloric intake must be at a deficit
level; we must burn more calories than we consume in-order to burn
body-fat. As a result, lean tissue is often lost, but Sust will protect
it, and the more lean tissue you hold onto the more fat you'll burn.
Couple this with testosterones metabolic enhancing properties and you're a fat burning machine.

Overall Enhancement: regardless of your purpose of use, bulking,
cutting or to simply enhance athletic performance, you will find
Sustanon is one of the most versatile steroidal compounds on earth.
Regardless of your purpose of use, your muscular endurance will be
enhanced as will your overall rate of recovery, and those two traits
alone make this a steroid worthy of consideration. When we look at all
these benefits and how testosterone affects the body in its every day
functional sense, the benefits of Sustanon 250 as you can see are truly
vast.

The Side Effects of Sustanon:

As a heavily aromatizing steroid, the primary side-effects of Sustanon 250 will be those of an estrogenic nature as the aromatase process refers to the conversion of testosterone into estrogen. As estrogen levels increase, this can lead to gynecomastia
and excess water retention, which can in-turn promote high blood
pressure. For this reason, its often advised that the use of an
Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) be present with the use of any testosterone
compound; Anastrozole (Arimidex) and Letrozole (Femara)
are always your best choices. By their natural mode of action, AIs will
inhibit the aromatase process from occurring and even lower the bodys
total estrogen levels; problem solved. It should be noted; Selective
Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs) can also protect against
gynecomastia by binding to the receptors in the place of estrogen;
however, they will not inhibit aromatase or reduce estrogen levels. This
means SERMs cannot offer protection beyond gynecomastia, and depending
on your dosing and overall sensitivity they may not be enough to protect
you from that; AIs are the only true answer.

While AIs can offer a lot of protection, and with supraphysiological
doses of testosterone they're often recommended, they can have a
negative impact on your lipid profiles as can supraphysiological doses
of testosterone to a degree. Its not uncommon to see LDL levels increase
and HDL levels decrease, but all hope is not lost. For this reason, it
is imperative you do not supplement
if you have high cholesterol, but if healthy you should give extra
effort into ensuring the continuation of such healthy levels. A great
place to start is with the consumption of plenty of omega fatty acids as
they will increase your HDL levels, which will in-turn regulate your
LDL levels.

Notes on Sustanon Side-Effects:

You should not supplement if you have high blood pressure.

You should not supplement it you have high cholesterol.

You should not supplement if you suffer from prostate enlargement.

You should not supplement if youre not a healthy adult male.

Weve already looked at blood pressure and cholesterol, and while
prostate enlargement is unlikely with testosterone use, it is possible,
and the problem could be exasperated if you already suffer. The
testosterone hormone has the ability to convert into dihydrotestosterone
(DHT), the androgen
that causes prostate enlargement, but it takes a massive DHT buildup
for a healthy prostate to fall prey. Further, DHT buildups of a massive
nature can induce hair-loss in men who are predisposed to male-pattern
baldness; however, if you are predisposed you were going to lose your
hair anyway.

It must be noted; when it comes to the side effects of Sustanon 250, TRT
patients rarely have a large concern; after all, theyre merely
replacing, they are not enhancing. With TRT level doses, we are not
presenting a hormone we are unfamiliar with or surpassing levels our
body is unaccustomed to; once again, we are merely replacing what we are
lacking with a hormone we are very familiar with. Then we have
adolescent use, and in no way can such use be recommended unless under
severe therapeutic need due to the damage it could cause to a fragile
and underdeveloped androgen system.

Making a Purchase of Sustanon:

If you decide to buy Sustanon for the purpose of performance enhancement, in many cases, especially if you live in the U.S. youll be doing so on the black market,
and this compound comes with a cost with such a purchase. First and
foremost, this is one of if not the most expensive testosterone
compounds youll ever find; this is largely due to is extreme popularity.
Further, this is without question the most commonly counterfeited
testosterone compound youll ever find. In most cases, when counterfeited
its still testosterone, but its normally a single large ester
testosterone compound and not the precise four ester mixture as
described above. For these reasons, if you decide to buy Sustanon 250,
youll need to put in a little extra effort if youre going to find a
good price, and more importantly, if youre going to find a quality
product. Make no mistake, theres plenty of high quality product at a
reasonable and fair rate, but you may need to do a little digging.
